There is an identical string in gtk+, plus this comment:

#. Translate to calendar:YM if you want years to be displayed
#. * before months; otherwise translate to calendar:MY.
#. * Do *not* translate it to anything else, if it
#. * it isn't calendar:YM or calendar:MY it will not work.
#. *
#. * Note that the ordering described here is logical order, which is
#. * further influenced by BIDI ordering. Thus, if you have a default
#. * text direction of RTL and specify "calendar:YM", then the year
#. * will appear to the right of the month.

It might be worth filing a bug report to add a similar comment to gnome-shell.
